Catch up the current version of Mew(with anoncvs)


1. Log into anoncvs.mew.org once to cache the null password.
% cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.mew.org:/cvsmew login
(Logging in to anoncvs@anoncvs.mew.org)
CVS password: 

Note that you should type just RET as password.

2. Check out the source tree.
for Mew 5(current)
% cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.mew.org:/cvsmew co mew
for Mew 5.2.{1-49}(stable)
% cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.mew.org:/cvsmew co -r stable-5-2 mew
3. Whenever you like, catch up the current.

Synchronization between the author's CVS repository and anonymous CVS is done on every 1, 16, 31, and 46 minutes. Be careful when you update the source tree.

% cd mew
% cvs update -d -P
% make distclean
% ./configure
% make
% su
# make install

Note that you should execute this command in the "mew" directory. Since old elc files can cause problems, you should execute 'make distclean' before 'make'.
